Hi. Barb here. Unfortunately I’m in book jail. Deadline near and far more writing road to travel. Then a proposal and a short story due after that. Like planes stacked up over an airport with a single runway open.

Fortunately, my husband, Bill Carito, has stepped up to fill the void. We’re in Key West until April 1. While I pound the keyboard every afternoon, he roams the town, looking for the right shot.

Bikes are the preferred method for navigating Key West. The island is compact and flat and the parking is terrible. The highest point, laughably called Solares Hill, is 18 feet above sea level. I have walked over it many times, and you don’t even notice an incline.

Bill is an astute observer of his surrounding environment. His photos are always inspired. Who would have thought bikes could be so colorful. Rather like a flock of wild parrots streaking down the avenue. Thanks so much for sharing.

What gorgeous colors, Barb and Bill! Accustomed to the drab sepia Maine winter, I felt, looking at these photos, as if my life had suddenly changed from Kansas to the Land of Oz. Thank you for sharing them.

I’m with Sherry! Love the blue-shirted guy in front of the matching house …. kudos to Bill! And sympathy and understanding to you, Barb … along with envy for the bright colors! Look forward to seeing you both in Maine later this spring.
